Dinner…

How was your dinner?

How honest do you want me to be?

Umm… 100%… ?!

Well… we’re glad we tried it once…

Oh no, there’s a but coming, I can feel it…

But well — we’re still more used to CHINESE hot pot… ๐Ÿ˜…

Ughh… ๐Ÿซ 

Even with the Korean BBQ, I was like, hmm… I keep expecting this to be shabu shabu but it’s not shabu shabu, it’s Korean BBQ…

What’s the difference?

It’s not THAT different but it feels like a different format…

Different format?

I don’t know!!! Actually I asked my friends, “Did this place take over the Chinese hot pot?!” And they said, “No. It’s the same building. The Chinese hot pot is upstairs…”

And then some friends would ask for this or that, and then other friends would say, “That’s at the CHINESE hot pot, UPSTAIRS — do you wanna just go upstairs instead?!” ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

Sounds like none of you are used to Korean hot pot… or BBQ…

๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… I’m sorry my darling, maybe we really need some KOREAN FRIENDS to guide us through it next time?!?!?

(LOL……) okay. Nevermind. I’ll guide you through it next time.

Okay? ๐Ÿคญ๐Ÿ’•

Did anything else interesting happen?

Nah, not really… just our usual catch ups…

Everyone is living their normal lives…

What kind of normal lives?

Oh, you know, the one friend who’s a film editor — she’s working with a renowned Taiwanese film director…

Who?!

I don’t know. She said his name and I asked, “who’s that?” And she said “he’s like… Top 50 film director in Taiwan” ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… U didn’t ask any more questions?

I asked, “Have I seen any of his films?” And she said “probably not” and I believe her, it’s most likely I have not… ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคญ

LOL… Maybe you haven’t but maybe I HAVE?!?!?! ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

You think so?!

I think I’ve probably seen more Taiwanese films than you by now, yes. I’m feeling pretty sure about that.

LOL well?! Oh well?! She can’t say much else about the project at this stage… when it comes out we can go watch it together ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ’•

LOL… okay… sure my love. I’d really like that… (holding hands)… what else?

Ummm… oh, you don’t need to take me to the candlelight concerts anymore for our date nights.

Oh? Why’s that?

Because another of the Taiwanese friends, her brother can get us comp tickets! She said there’s a whole other seating area for comp ticket holders, we can pretty much go any time.

I told her I wanna go to the Bridgerton and Taylor Swift nights and she said yes, just text me which ones, let’s go.

๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜… so I need to think of other date night ideas if you’re already going with your friends?!

Hmmm… well… I’ll go and see if it’s ๐Ÿ’•romantic…๐Ÿ’•

Anything else?

Nah… well… some boys helped us take some photos…

๐Ÿคจ what boys?!

Oh they were so harmless. I don’t know how old they were but at first they photo bombed us and then they took our photos for us…

Who are these boys?! How old are they?!

You know what, I honestly can’t even tell these days how old they are… I feel like they could’ve ranged anywhere from 16 to 25?

๐Ÿ˜‘๐Ÿ˜‘๐Ÿ˜‘ 16 to possibly 25 years old… guys…

Maybe?! No way were they Millennials. Definitely gen Alpha or Z. That’s it.

?!?!?!

I don’t know. I’m sleepy ๐Ÿ˜ด

Good night!!! ๐Ÿฅฐโค๏ธ
